    I feel like we're almost certainly trading Tari for a guard now, sadly.

    Unless it’s a really good guard coming back, the Rockets aren’t trading Tari Eason. The Rockets can run a lineup of Thompson-Finney-Smith-Durant-Jabari-Sengun with Eason, Sheppard and either Adams or Capela off the bench and still win a lot of games.

    Derrick White
    CJ McCollum
    Zach Lavine (blech)
    Jrue Holiday
    DeJounte Murray



    The problem is FVV has to probably be involved and approve the trade.

    I could see the Rockets getting rid of Jabari. Some team might think him a bargain & they Already have too many 4s who can't guard down.

    Time for Matt Maloney to earn those last years of his contract.

    Would love for De'Anthony to come back to H-Town, but, probably doesn't happen on a vet minimum, even with him being out a season+ and still not signed. Outside of that, this is the reason Aaron was resigned, and we go into battle with him/Amen/Reed as the 96 minutes of 1/2 trio. Sounds pretty grim, unless both Reed and Amen take gigantic steps forward, which, isn't completely out of the realm of possibilities.

    Miles McBride is available and fits Ime's profile.

    Well, that is what you think but that wasn't the reason he was let go.....his attitude was cat poop.

    And probably cannot process to play with his teammates efficiently.

    Unless Ime actually trusts Okogie, Stone really screwed up here with no guard depth.
